Any suggestions for pre-show hookups?

Going to the Fort York show in Toronto - if anybody here is from the area and knows of any good local music spots to check out while I'm there I would greatly appreciate it.

Hey Lance, in my profile I have it set so I dont receive emails everytime someone posts a reply in topic I have posted in. But today Ive gotten 40+ emails telling me someone has replied to a topic....

HELP!

LK.

I went and saw ol' Willie last night. It was an entertaining show, I was impressed. I got a REAL kickin shirt, I'll take some pics and post it later.

Check thehip.com for details....some of you west coasters will be happy!!

Great work on the VODcast Lance! That Mac is serving you well!

Picked it up this morning (along with the new Neil Young- more on that one later). What an exhausting listen! John Frusciante's guitar wizardry completely dominates both discs, and that alone is worth buying the record in my opinion. Like most double albums, not every song is a gem, but I think it's safe for me to say that at least 20 out of the 28 tracks are excellent, while the others are one tiny step above mediocre. Self indulgent? You bet. But when the music's this good, who gives a shit? There are about 4 or 5 songs that I don't really like, but I wouldn't go so far as to say they're bad. These guys know what they're doing, and they do it very well.

Much like their other albums, this one has a very raw sound, and was obviously recorded live-off-the-floor without a lot of polishing in the studio, save for a few layered guitar and vocal overdubs on some of the tracks. I should also mention that Anthony Kiedis delivers the best vocal performance of his career. If there's any weakness at all to this album, it's definitely Kiedis' lyrics, which unfortunately haven't developed much since "Blood Sugar Sex Magik". A lot of them are just nonsensical jumbles of words that happen to rhyme. But these guys have never been known for their lyrical prowess, so it's a minor complaint. I like different bands for different reasons, and Keidis' lyrics are usually the last thing I'm listening for when I throw on the Peppers. What I dig most about this band are their strong melodies and their insanely talented musicianship. Their lyrics may be silly, but these guys can write a catchy hook like nobody's business.

My rating: *** 1/2 out of 4.

TORONTO (CP) - They've always been hip, but soon they'll be royal.

The Tragically Hip will be honoured by The Royal Conservatory of Music at a so-called Royal Occasion gala on May 24. The band's members will be presented with an honorary fellowship at the event, held annually by Canada's largest and oldest independent arts school. "Each year, the conservatory honours Canadian artists who have made a lasting contribution to the arts," Peter Simon, president of The Royal Conservatory of Music, said Tuesday in a release.
